Elf Transformation Using Photo Manipulation

If you read my other blog cyberspacefuture.com you already know that I am a huge fan of Photo Manipulation (it is the only kind of Digital Design that I am able to perform).

Normally I make alien transformations and post those pics on CSF, but since I made this one for my dear bro Olga Klein, and it is not related to futuristic and outer-space thematic, I decided to rather post this here and to share with you a bit of this my part of life as a photo designer (so to speak, lol).

Elf Transformation Using Photo Manipulation

What did I make?

This photo was already retouched, but yet all the colors were oversaturated (as for me), so I paled skin, lightened and discolored hair, changed the color of the iris, and made "liquify" transformation to make ears and face look more "elvish". I finished the work with light correction: to highlight a few details and to darken some others.
